   Neuroplasticity Myths & Nootropic Peptides: Dr. Carl Page on Research vs. Biohacking Hype

   Are nootropic peptides a real tool for brain health, or mostly biohacking hype? On this episode of Rolling with the Tides, host Caitlin (CDJ Peppers) talks with Dr. Carl Page. He is co-founder and chief medical officer of Medical Transformation Center in Louisville, Kentucky. He has more than 30 years of experience as a board-certified pediatrician and internist, and he now trains other physicians in cellular medicine.They cover nootropic peptides, cognitive performance, neuroplasticity, and what the science supports and doesn't.In this episode: What cellular medicine means and why it leads to more personalized care What makes a peptide "nootropic," and why no peptide will "make you smarter" Semax, Selank, Dihexa and Cerebrolysin: what they may do, what human evidence is missing, and why cycling on and off matters Why neuroplasticity is one of biohacking's most overused words Why sleep, energy, inflammation and mitochondrial function come before any peptide Brain fog, neuroinflammation and where a clinician starts The risks of research-use-only (RUO) peptides and the "gray market" Why personalized medicine is not copying someone's stack from TikTok Rapid-fire questions on hype vs. evidence, and how to judge a study ("who paid for it?") Keywords: nootropic peptides, peptides for brain health, cognitive performance, neuroplasticity, cellular medicine, Semax, Selank, Dihexa, Cerebrolysin, brain fog, mitochondrial function, research-use-only peptides, peptide research Disclaimer: This episode is for educational and research purposes only.
